Hi Buly,

I think this is really good news.  Much better to have a reason for the
problem and in this case, it cropped up at a very good time (NOT
flying).

Sorry for the late reply, but I'm trying to get thru 230 Flyrotary
messages waiting for me after a 10 day vacation.  I've read about 200
of them and have 85 to go.  They just keep coming in. :)

Bob W.
